The canister has a first wall portion in thermal contact with the outer wall of the inflator housing. A body of gas generating material is disposed within the hermetically sealed canister. The gas generating material, when ignited, generates gas for inflating the air bag. An auto ignition packet including auto ignition material is secured within the hermetically sealed canister.

The packet includes a flexible container, made of an air-permeable, fabric, sheet material, enclosing the auto ignition material.
